I am glad to know these books are available. Hopefully it is the beginning of a strong black and tan relationship in marketing
This is great. You find fiction and non-fiction on one-site. But there are no comments on how new authors can have their books listed. It would be helpful if there is some information on how a book gets selected for this list, requirements, cost, etc.
